Emergency Medicine Physician

Emergency Room Physician

St. Boniface Hospital

“The program has allowed me to develop different coping skills to maintain the calm and focus that can save lives in a crisis.”

– Dr. Stephanie A. Johnston BSc., MD, FRCSC

Obstetrics and Gynecology Physician

“We deliver high risk interventions to our patients in the context of fatigue, cognitive overload, high task complexity and personal stressors. We need to train not only to be able to function under stressful moments, but to reappraise these situations as a challenge as opposed to a threat. We are very good at creating work-arounds and getting by from one crisis to the next. We need to shrink these crises and learn to decompress and recover.”

- Jesse Spurr, Clinical Nurse Consultant

Intensive Care

“Emergency Medicine is a constant stress environment, but it is often our own emotions and foibles that sink us when the things get intense. Performance psychology is directly applicable to my daily work as a Physician. It doesn't try to override my emotions and flaws, but rather it has taught me to better recognize them, and to develop effective personal strategies to manage them.”

- Dr. Hareishun Shanmuganathan, MBBS, FRCPC-EM, & FRCPC-PEM
